[00:00:26] <CaptHindsight> their cold remedy always worked for me, take it twice a day for 7-10 days and my cold was always gone :)
[00:00:34] <XXCoder> lol
[00:01:05] <Valen> zinc has been shown to help if taken at the first symptoms
[00:01:12] <andypugh> A bottle of Southern Comfort is a sovereign remedy for colds. Just repeat the dose every night until it works.
[00:01:27] <Valen> but nobody is going to pay for big trials because you can't patent zinc ;->
[00:01:37] <CaptHindsight> I use scotch for just about everything

[00:02:07] <andypugh> Seems a waste to use Scotch if your sense of smell is out of action.
[00:02:32] <Valen> another study looked at cough medicines, and found the benefit of the medication wasn't really distinguishable from having just the alcahol in the syrup
[00:04:14] <CaptHindsight> and using water vs mouthwash and measuring the amount of bacteria 30 minutes later
[00:05:31] <R2E4_> Do the Home entries in the ini file need the + or only - if it travels in negative direction?
[00:05:40] <CaptHindsight> Valen: how controlled are meds down under?
[00:06:12] <Valen> very as a rule
[00:06:21] <Valen> but in what sense?
[00:06:36] <CaptHindsight> China is funny. I can buy antibiotics without a script, but other common over the counter meds are not available
[00:06:58] <Valen> ok that is going to screw everything up
[00:07:07] <Valen> antibiotics should be a big deal

[00:08:54] <CaptHindsight> yeah, so when you end up in the hospital or ER they go right to Ciprofloxacin
[00:10:37] -!- motioncontrol has quit [Quit: Sto andando via]
[00:11:24] <XXCoder> just dont take it for any viruses. antibonatics dont do diddy shit to them
[00:11:36] <XXCoder> except train them to make bicteria more resistant
[00:11:51] <CaptHindsight> that was the problem, they'd give it out for colds
[00:13:33] <Valen> people go to a dr when they feel sick, Dr needs to give them a pill
[00:13:53] <Valen> I believe some company is getting a placebo on the drug register here
[00:14:09] <Valen> so the doctors have something they can proscribe for people to feel better
[00:16:20] <CaptHindsight> chill pill, anti-anxiety

[14:32:13] <zoni1983> hi any one there
[14:32:28] <zoni1983> i need a bit of info
[14:33:06] <cradek> hi, in irc, always just ask your real question; you don't have to ask to ask first
[14:33:12] <zoni1983> is it nessasery to select axis for hand wheel via io
[14:33:30] <zoni1983> or can they be selected from keyboard
[14:33:46] <cradek> if you're using the AXIS gui, it has outputs you can use to select the wheel axis
[14:33:58] <cradek> also Touchy does a similar thing
[14:42:17] -!- thomaslindstr_m has quit [Quit: Leaving...]
[14:47:17] <JT-Shop> you can also use a selector switch for the axis to jog
[14:47:42] <cradek> yes true, but I think his question was asking how to not do that
[14:48:24] <JT-Shop> ah yes, too quick of a glance

[15:41:04] <cradek> R2E4: what do you mean problem?
[15:43:48] <R2E4> MAybe I should have said issue. I want to be able to send the coltage speed command to the spindle servo driver and not have linuxcnc worry about what speed it is at.
[15:44:10] <R2E4> Is that just remove the encoder pins for that drive?
[15:44:35] <R2E4> I have a fanuc spindle with no encoder but a magnetic sensor.

[15:49:07] <pcw_home> does the sensor go back to the spindle drive?
[15:49:59] <R2E4> yes
[15:50:11] <R2E4> I am reading. Just got the maintenance manual today.
[15:51:04] <pcw_home> you don't need a spindle encoder unless you want to do spindle synchronized motion (like rigid tapping)
[15:51:39] <R2E4> ok, thats later I think I will install an encoder, but for now, i just want to get this spindle working.

[21:55:05] <tjtr33> for homing, look at integrators manual, section 4.3. which of the 4 configurations are you using?
[21:58:10] <zoni1983> i am using limit and index
[21:59:10] <tjtr33> then it is correct to hit the switch twice, BUT it should move further to find the index ( see diagram )
[22:00:04] <tjtr33> what do you see happen when it hits the switch 2nd time?
[22:00:35] <zoni1983> in diagram it says i need to give search velosity positive
[22:01:31] <zoni1983> but i cant because my motors are rotating in oppostie direction
[22:02:06] <tjtr33> true, but the text grid says 'nonzero' ( i agree its confusing )
[22:02:57] <zoni1983> so negitive search velocity does not matter
[22:03:25] <zoni1983> or does it effect
[22:03:51] <tjtr33> i cannot confirm it without trying it, can you safely try it? ( maybe move to center of travel and trip the switch by hand ? )
[22:04:30] <zoni1983> i tried tobtrip switch by hand
[22:04:48] <zoni1983> i have to trip switch twise
[22:04:57] <zoni1983> for it to home

[22:05:32] <tjtr33> yes, what do you see happen after 2nd time?
[22:05:40] <JT-Shop> tjtr33, which text is confusing?
[22:06:03] <tjtr33> JT-Shop, the diagram say positivem the text grid says nonzero section 4.3
[22:06:09] <JT-Shop> http://www.linuxcnc.org/docs/html/config/ini_homing.html#_homing_sequence
[22:06:47] <zoni1983> it slows down but on hal meter the index does not show
[22:07:13] <tjtr33> zoni1983, try to confirn that the index appears
[22:07:29] <tjtr33> JT-Shop, see what i mean?
[22:07:50] <tjtr33> zoni1983, try to confirn that the index appears _eventually__
[22:07:50] <zoni1983> how do i do that
[22:07:59] <JT-Shop> tjtr33, not really the charts are an example of search and latch in different directions and the same direction
[22:08:02] <tjtr33> move to middle of stroke and jog a looooong way

[22:08:52] <tjtr33> JT-Shop, ok the text grid is generic and the diagram is specific, ok sorry & thanks
[22:09:24] <JT-Shop> zoni1983, check that your index is working http://gnipsel.com/linuxcnc/tuning/encoder.html
[22:09:49] -!- FreezingCold [FreezingCold!~FreezingC@135.0.41.14] has joined #linuxcnc
[22:09:50] <zoni1983> but the diagram says that the serchvelity should be positive
[22:09:58] <zoni1983> is it nessary
[22:10:01] <JT-Shop> the text above the diagrams need to be expanded

[22:13:26] <tjtr33> (JT thats the confusion, i can see his point, but then, i'm easily confused :)
[22:13:26] <JT-Shop> zoni1983, only look at if the diagram shows both in the same direction or in different directions
[22:13:26] <JT-Shop> it would be clearer if latchvel said same or opposite perhaps
[22:13:26] <JT-Shop> dunno if I can edit the diagram or not... but I'll look

[22:13:27] * JT-Shop says it is officially time to stop work work and start play work
[22:13:27] <zoni1983> in third the serchvel is pos and latch vel is neg
[22:13:33] <JT-Shop> so opposite
[22:13:39] <zoni1983> yes
[22:14:48] * JT-Shop goes down to the beer cave to see if it is possible to clear up the diagram or not
[22:15:12] <zoni1983> so if my motors home swich is in opposite dir and i give serchvel neg and latch vel positive it should work

[22:38:21] <CaptHindsight> http://imagebin.org/302200 the router cleaned up well after some sanding, polishing and anodize
[22:38:42] <XXCoder> nice!
[22:38:49] <XXCoder> it looked pretty bad before.
[22:41:29] <CaptHindsight> http://imagebin.org/302203
[22:42:19] <XXCoder> nice indeed
[22:43:42] <CaptHindsight> they just need a little TLC out of the box
[22:43:52] <XXCoder> I bet. :)
[22:44:16] <XXCoder> I'm starting to wonder if I could grab lot of alum scrap and melt em into slabs so I can mill em into cnc parts
[22:44:58] <XXCoder> I doubt it, bit lot work even if it probably would be pretty cheap
[22:46:32] <CaptHindsight> the router next to has >1/8" of play in the X, there is no preload on the ballscrew, and the holder for the bearing is 1mm oversized
[22:46:52] <XXCoder> still fixing it I see
[22:47:38] <CaptHindsight> they do a good job of machining them, they just don't put them together right
[22:49:42] <CaptHindsight> the factory must be knee deep in filth

[23:33:17] <XXCoder> lol was thinking in website design terms
